I cannot understand why some people consider God and Allah as the same thing.

Can you please explain your view on this??

I recently saw a website that claimed wiccans are not the same as witches. I have practiced wicca for a few years and all my books as well as at every meeting i have ever been to wiccans call themselves witches.Is there really a difference?

According to the Bible, God lived on Mount Sinai, a physical and visible being. With mountain climbers, preachers placed Him firmly in the clouds. Now, with humans flying about all over the place, preachers tell us He's invisible. What's the deal?

It's one way to win an argument I guess - just have it with yourself. It's the model religion.

That we all seem to identify ourselves by our point of view. Example: In R&S, i identify with an atheist standpoint and i write it down......why is there so much criticism of atheists and talk about not allowing them in this section of yahoo answers? It is not an exclusive category. Any comments?

and a group of Hindus told you they would feed you and help you get back on your feet in exchange for your conversion to their religion, would you do it? Is this an acceptable practice, or do you find it immoral?

(Exodus 21:7-11)
When a man sells his daughter as a slave, she will not be freed at the end of six years as the men are. If she does not please the man who bought her, he may allow her to be bought back again. But he is not allowed to sell her to foreigners, since he is the one who broke the contract with her. And if the slave girl's owner arranges for her to marry his son, he may no longer treat her as a slave girl, but he must treat her as his daughter. If he himself marries her and then takes another wife, he may not reduce her food or clothing or fail to sleep with her as his wife. If he fails in any of these three ways, she may leave as a free woman without making any payment.

Isn't drowing babies in the flood always bad even if god does it?

2007-01-17 03:18:12 · 9 answers · asked by Anonymous

What if a person intentionally blew up a dam with the idea of drowning babies in a town, and succeeded in doing so? Would you consider him evil? If so, then why it is ok for god to do the same thing in the flood?

Is it ok to think that we did not evolve only because you find it repugnant, or do you need more information? What about the big bang, or our lack of free will?

There are a couple of people who took the trip straight up with their physical bodies. Jesus went up with a physical body. Obviously Heaven is a physical place or they wouldn't have to travel there in physical bodies.

How long did it take to get there?

How come we cannot find Heaven?

There is this verse in 1 John 4:18. In my NIV Bible It says fear has to do with punishment. But I think It might be the KJB I don't know It says that fear has to do with torment. Also, How can I not be afraid of God?

6) Angels cannot disobey allah:
Sura 16:49-50 says of the angels that "...They ALL fear their Lord, high above them, and they do ALL THEY ARE COMMANDED."

Here we are told angels NEVER disobey allah.

But, not suprisingly, the quran then says in Sura 2:34 when talking of the angels being told to bow down to Adam that

"And behold, we said to the angels: `bow down to Adam`. And they bowed down, EXCEPT IBLIS. HE REFUSED AND WAS HAUGHTY".

So according to the quran ALL angels do as commanded, but not always

UPDATE: In fairness to Muslims I have offered to show any problems found with the articles on Islam. One has written and been discussing with me this error in particular about angels disobeying allah.

As he rightly points out there is another Sura (Surah 18:50) which says the same thing but also says Iblis was a Jinn. Surah 2:34 however says ALL the angels bowed EXCEPT Iblis.

If the Quran is indeed error free this passage makes no sense as for all angels to bow except Iblis implies he too is an angel, if not then the command did not apply to him and so the Quran is wrong to say all angels except Iblis bowed.
